The Chillicothe PD is asking for help in identifying a suspect in the theft of a video camera from Sears. Attached are pictures of the suspect, a white male, accused of putting a video camera down his pants and walking out of the store. The suspect was in the company of a female. Any information as to the identity of the pair should be given to Ofc. A. Newsome, 740-773-1191 and refer to report 11-16629.

As previously reported, the Chillicothe Police Department found 44 cats and 1 dog inside of an E Fifth St residence. These animals were found in poor condition and in need of veterinary care. The local Humane Society was not able to meet these needs. A local veterinary clinic, North Fork Animal Clinic, voluntarily took the animals and gave them the appropriate care and shelter.
​The North Fork Animal Clinic has had numerous individuals contact them about making donations to the clinic. However, they are not able to accept monetary donations at the clinic. They have established an account at the Ross County Banking Center, “cat rescue” fund, for any monetary donations dedicated for this purpose. The clinic will accept donations of supplies, such as food and cat litter, at the clinic, which is located at 2260 Anderson Station Road.
​The North Fork Animal Clinic is asking that you do not call the clinic seeking adoption information or to check on the welfare of the cats, as it is not possible for them to meet these requests.
​The Chillicothe Police Department and North Fork Animal Clinic will continue to work together to inform the community as to the status and possible adoption of these animals.
